The Bestlite BL9 pendant Ø16 in Brass/Brass is available in four sizes and various colours. It was designed by the Bauhaus-inspired British designer, Robert Dudley Best, in 1930. With its impressive heritage and modern look, the BL9 pendant is a sought-after design all over the world. The lampshade is characteristic for the entire collection and helps the BL9 pendant create a direct light in your kitchen and dining room. The lamp’s design makes it suited for any style of interior design. The Architects Journal named Bestlite the first Bauhaus product in the United Kingdom. This made design enthusiasts across the country notice the lamp and public demand kicked off when Winston Churchill personally selected the Bestlite BL1 table lamp for his desk. This helped ensure the iconic status of the Bestlite brand. The Bestlite design is closely linked to its industrial roots and stays true to its original design. The lamps are on view in permanent exhibitions at the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Design Museum in London. The Bestlite lamp has been used by many architects, designers and design enthusiasts through the years. It truly deserves its acclaim as a modern classic.

Classic design pendant lamp BL9 in brass The simple, elegant and classic form of the pendant luminaire BL9 makes it an indispensable part of the interior design - not only for private homes, but also for hotels and restaurants. It illuminates dining tables, kitchen and restaurant counters in a focused and pleasant way. Whether placed individually or hung in a row, the pendant luminaire BL9, which is part of the Bestlite series by British industrial designer Robert Dudley Best, guarantees attractive ambient lighting in any location and blends harmoniously into a wide variety of interior design styles. The shade in polished brass gives BL9 a noble and warm character. Robert Dudley Best (1892-1984) was inspired by greats of the Bauhaus, such as Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier. The Bestlite series began with the BL1 flexible table lamp; it was initially used as a workshop lamp and by the Royal Air Force until it became known as Winston Churchill's desk lamp. In 2004 the Danish company Gubi - known for the production of high-quality furniture and lighting - took over the production according to the original designs.
